This Is Home

I've had Switchfoot's "This Is Home" running around in my head for some time. I knew there was a blog post in there somewhere, I just didn't know when or what.

I first heard the song this past summer on ESPN of all places. They used it as their theme song for the Title Town USA contest they were holding. I loved the song but didn't know anything about it. Josh did some hunting around and found that it was done by Switchfoot for the Prince Caspian movie.

This morning I put a slide show together using This Is Home. I used pictures from Eight Days of Hope. Enjoy!

This Is Home reminds me that this world is not my home. That my real home is in heaven. And it's imperishable and eternal. That it will never be destroyed. And that in my new home there will be no more tears, no more death, no more mourning, no more crying and no more pain. This is my real home, the home where I belong.

Every man, woman and child longs for a home like this. A place to call their own. A place to belong. I want to help people find their real home, a home prepared with love just for them.

I've been created for a place I've never known. This is home!

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. John 14:1-3
